Into the Breach - A Brothers Grim Spring Malifaux Achievement League

Registration: $15 (sign-ups will be at the counter this Thursday)
League Start Date: 5/3/2012
League End Date: 6/21/2012
League Crew Construction: Players must declare a faction at the start of the league and will select crews from within that faction for all league games according the rules for hiring crews on page 70 of the rules manual.
Proxy Rule: I don’t want to be a stickler about this, but I also don’t want entire crews to consist of non-Malifaux models. Please try and contain at least 50% Wyrd models in your crews for any given game.
Prize Ruling:
- Best in Faction (Top achievement points in each faction - Minimum of 2 players playing same faction)
- Over Achiever (Top achievement points overall during the League)
- Giving it a Good College Try (Lowest Achievement score having played at least one game each week of the league)

League Specifics:
Unlike most of our shops leagues, there will be no pairings or schedule. Instead, the Malifaux Achievement League is set-up to encourage Malifaux players to play regular games over the time period of the league and accumulate achievement points during the league. This means you play as many games as able throughout the leagues entirety. Games and Achievements must be tracked on the Achievement tracking sheet and kept through the end of the League. Each player is responsible for their-own sheet, and must submit their achievement sheet with achievements initialed by their opponents. Games are encouraged to be played at Brothers Grim, but can be played anywhere as long as both players are part of the league. During a single game, a player may earn one achievement from each category. I will be handing out the packets for those players that sign up and pay, only then will players be able to start recording achievement points for games played. I wanted to try something different this go around, something that would encourage new and old players alike to participate in the league.

Some of the achievements include:
Pretty Colours: Play a game with a fully-painted crew - 5pts
Make up your mind: Play a game with each master in a select faction - 1pt per master
Yikes!: Play a game where your crew has no ss-cache - 3pts

Achievements are intentionally designed with the expectation that nobody will complete them all. The idea is to give people a variety of paths to “scoring” while also encouraging growth of our Malifaux community.

For more information about the League, please feel free to contact me: tjzix86@gmail.com

I'd be more than happy to send you the league packet via e-mail if you would like to know more about the league before you sign up. Hope to see you on the other side of the breach!!!

This is tempting as I can have a Malifaux game and an Infinity game in one night. You can probably count me in...

There is still time to sign up for the league, I believe it's about a week and a half until the intended start date!! If you are looking to try something new this is the league to do it.

ATTENTION POTENTIAL LEAGUE MEMBERS

With careful thought and consideration about the idea, I've come to a conclusion that players will not have to declare a faction at the start of the league. The league is going to be OPEN FACTION which means you can play anything you want to get points for the league. So, if you feel so incline to finally pick up that Lilith box set, but you primarily play Guild, you may play the Lilith box in the league and get points. The most important part of the league is for people to have fun and I feel that open faction is the way to go to achieve that goal! That is all.

Im in and looking forward to playing malifaux again. It looks like I'll be at the shop this Thursday and might be able to get a game in at 6 if anyone is interested.

Ok, just a few things I want to clear up. First of all, last Thursday was a great start to the league as we had 6 members down at BG playing games, great job!! Now, that's the last bit of praise you'll all get from me until the completion on the league =P.

Next, all members should have the league packet with the list of achievements by now. All members are responsible for their own packet and to track all completed achievements. In regards to the league packets, I'm asking all members to leave their packets in the Green Malifaux folder behind the counter. This way you don't lose them, meaning you won't lose your achievement points. Also, I will be able to tally up Achievement points at the midway point of the league, and show you who is currently in the lead!

Wait, there is more! Currently we are still in the first week, which ends this Saturday, so we are still at the very beginning stages of the league. Now, I'm thinking of adding a mini schedule to help give people a chance to get games in. It would be a very short schedule, maybe something on the lines of 4 games or so. Players will get raffle tickets for completing these games that will be used to potentially win some prizes at the end of the league, as well as the chance to track achievements normally. A player will be awarded 1 raffle ticket for playing a scheduled game and 2 raffle tickets for winning a scheduled game!! In addition, I will be instituting a "Beat the Henchman" stipulation, where players that record a win against me in a non-scheduled game, will be awarded a raffle ticket!! Look for the schedule to be released Sunday, at the start of week 2.

Here is a list of players/potential players and the factions they have. Players with (*) are players that have paid:

Denis G* - (All)
Rob K* - (Guild)
Craig - (Neverborn)
Pete R* - (Arcanists)
Phil D - (Outcasts)
Bill S* - (Arcanists)
Shop Dave - (Outcasts)
Roy B - (Arcanists/Guild)
Scott H - (Guild)
Tim Z* - (Ressurectionists/Outcasts/Neverborn/Guild)
Chris C* - (Arcanists/Neverborn)
Christine - (Ressurectionists)
Leah - (Arcanists/Outcasts) Note: She will not be here until the end of May

I wish I could run this... there's just too much going on right now. Infinity, two FoW tournaments, FoW in my classroom, 40k GT in less than a month...

I will get some Malifaux in soon, I promise...

You should be used to playing with your self, Denis =P.

Note: Denis (Dirty-D) is also one of our shops Henchman...in fact he is the original Hench! However, the "Beat the Henchman" stipulation means games only against my self, as I am technically a ringer for the league anyway.

Jeremy, would be cool to have you aboard, but I know you are working on building your community as well so don't sweat it. We'll trade demos one of these days, especially with summer on the horizon I assume you'll have more time.
